I chose this atlas site because it is a great resource for understanding the propositions being made and perspectives being expressed by certain groups of people (the US, Korea, Japan, National Geographic, etc) on Korea&#8217;s role regionally and geo-politically in the modern era. For example, one of the maps it shows is a map created during WWII by the USA of the railways that the Japanese put into Korea to China in 1928.\u00a0 This map was both a proposition of how the US saw how their enemy was structurally organized in Korea, and (at least to my own analysis) tells us that they were going to use this information to help win the war. This atlas is also a great resource because it provides links to other atlases depicting East Asia from mainly university sources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Blog Links:\u00a0 https:\/\/history.army.mil\/books\/maps.htm and https:\/\/history.army.mil\/books\/maps.htm My first blog link shows an archive of maps depicting Asia or Korea in the Korean War from the U.S. Army Center of Military History.
